Hello, English language learners and English students! Many around the world will be celebrating Easter this weekend, but I thought it would be interesting to also share with you all its pagan origins! Eostre is the pagan goddess of spring and fertility. She is believed to have been worshiped by the Anglo Saxons (and other ancient Germanic peoples) for bringing spring, regrowth and renewal after the cold winter months. Those that worshiped Eostre celebrated her at the mark of the spring equinox with a feast and celebration. Some modern pagans still celebrate Eostre and there are many common features of the Eostre celebration and what is now called Easter, such as rabbits and eggs. #EnglishLeague #correctme #homework #spring

Hello, English language learners and English students! I would like to share another American tradition with you all, this time it’s Easter. And if you are celebrating Easter, feel free to practice your English by telling me how you will be spending the weekend! Here in the United States, this Sunday marks the annual Easter egg hunt! This is a popular celebration for those with little children. First, you buy your eggs from the grocery store (or if you’re lucky, you have your own chickens who will give you their eggs), then you decorate and dye the eggs in many spring themed colors like baby blue, pink, and yellow. After, you make sure the children are not looking and you hide the eggs outside in the garden or grass around your home so that they can “hunt” for the hidden eggs. It’s a race for the kids to see who can find the most eggs in the shortest amount of time! It’s a lot of fun for the kids and funny and entertaining for the parents to watch. The kids are also given baskets to carry the eggs in for Easter. These baskets are often filled with candy, chocolate eggs, and plastic eggs with a couple of coins or U.S. dollar bills! After the Easter egg hunt is over, families will gather to have a meal and later eat the chocolate Easter eggs and candies. It’s a time for families to visit and catch up on all of their latest news. For more fun facts and quizzes, follow me at Teacher Jazz. And as always, if you have any questions feel free to message me! Happy Easter guys.
